There's no sense in crying over boys!!! Plus, you're lucky that boys like you. I can't tell you how many young girls we get on here that want boyfriends but can't get one.
So you can't pick a guy, it's not the end of the world. If you're feeling stressed over it, then just say to heck with them all. You're going to be single and happy. You don't need a boyfriend at all times. It's good to be single. That way you don't have to worry about controlling boys who will try to pressure you into doing things, what to get them for their birthdays, them flirting with other girls, having a fight and worrying about making up, or worrying about if you're choosing your boyfriend over your friends. None of that drama!!!

Hey, so isn't it a school day today? Focus on school and worry about this stuff later. There's no good reason to ruin your grades worrying about something as insignificant as boys, lol.
Trust us, with time, things will become clearer. There simply is no rush, okay? Good luck!

I think you should just continue to get to know them and spend time as friends with them. There's no rush to have to decide, just be honest and say that you just want to get to know people better before you decide anything.
Otherwise, you're just forcing a choice on yourself for no particular reason.
Think about it this way, you may be distracted by trying to figure out which one to 'date' when in fact the guy who is more your type isn't even on your radar yet. If you get into a relationship with one of the three, the guy who is more your type won't even get a chance.

Since you can't make up your mind then don't pick any of them.
Ultimately it's your choice, and you can choose whether or not you want to listen to your suggestions.
If you're still conflicted..make a Pro's and Con's List for each guy and pick the one who looks the best on paper, i.e. the one with the most pro's.

I agree with Tennisstar and I vote for Arby. Exes are exes for a reason.

Let me start by addressing the possibility of dating all 3 and getting to know them all. You responded by saying that you would consider this to be cheating. At your age, that makes sense. To an adult dating several people at once to decide which you really like is appropriate at that age, but at your age it could quite easily be considered a betrayal of trust by any of them, and you would not be comfortable, which is the main thing. Rather than dating all 3 of them, feel free to spend time with all 3 of them as friends and get to know what they are like. It takes time to really get to know people. If you aren't sure that you like a guy enough to be with him, you probably don't like him enough, or don't know him well enough. Trust your judgement and feelings on the matter, and take your time, if you do that you will make the right choice.

Happy, Sleepy, and Dopey aren't options as well? Just kidding!
Ducky- You already gave him a chance. Then he caused drama in your life??
Arby- Sweet guy and the only one you haven't dated. Sounds like a winner to me!
Dorky- Real goofball, sounds immature, and you were always mad at him. Plus you've already dated him.
I'd go for Arby because you haven't dated him yet. He deserves a chance!

Arby.You don't even mention that you like Ducky, which I think says a lot.You broke up with Dorky because he just annoyed it, chances are it's not going to be any different this time around.

It's not cheating it's called "playing the field". As long as you don't lie about it, it's all good. Plus at your age it's much safer because there is no sex involved.

How is dating more than one person cheating?
are you telling them you are only dating them?
there's DATING
there's going steady
there's getting pinned
there's engaged
there's getting married
umm only if you are GOING steady or greater can you cheat...

I agree there is no rule that says you can only DATE one. it's better to be unattached if you can't make up your mind.

It really does not matter which one you pick, if you even want to choose any of them at all. A relationship at your age is generally short and shallow anyway, so pick somebody ( or don't) and have fun. If you don't like that person and it does not work out you have learned something for next time. Or to put it another way you can't make a mistake because they are all the right/wrong decisions.

Only you can choose who you want to be with am afraid. Just follow your heart. At the moment you are extremely confused so the best thing that you can do is not date anyone at the moment just take some time to yourself and see which one of these men you really want to be with. It takes time. Dont rush anything.

Whose says you have to choose? Date all three. You don't have to be in a committed relationship especially at your age.
